I use whipping twine, and proper patches - make sure you keep it clear of crown and pull through middle of bore.
If you need to use anything other than wrapped around fingers - your patch is too big and you risk snapping it
You'll get a harmonic sound or squeak when size is spot on, better too small a patch at first than too big
Pull through til clean generally
WD isn't really the best thing, treat yourself to a tin of Napier Power Oil for all your air gun uses, and some proper bore solvent for clearing out barrels
